I am on nights, so breakfast is lunch and lunch is dinner and dinner is breakfast. I am looking forward to my 300th breakfast of hashbrowns and tabasco. If I'm lucky there will be beans and I can make toast. I don't really mind, but it's not very healthy.

I usually have toast with margarine and nooch. I want biscuits and gravy or French toast. But I'm still trying to find the perfect French toast. Maybe that's something I can do during MoFo - make a different French toast recipe every weekend until I find the right one.

I pretty much have coffee with soy milk, 2 rounds of toast, peanut butter and a banana every morning. I am happy with that before work on a weekday but at weekends I would prefer pancakes or waffles or what Fezza said.

I make musli the night before. It kind of forces me to eat a healthy brekkie because it's already made and waiting for me.

Tomorrow's brekkie:One grated apple, a handful of oats, dash of cinnamon, sprinkle of sultanas and dried white mulberries. All covered with unsweetened almond milk and allowed to soak overnight in the fridge.

I'm terrible at breakfast, I can't manage to get out of bed until the very last second I need to to get to work on time. I'd love to have it together enough to at the very least make a green smoothie, but generally I'm living on air until 10.30 when I have my tea break at work where, if I'm lucky, I have toast. Mostly it just ends up being coffee though.

I went grocery shopping this morning before breakfast, so by the time I got home, I was pretty famished. I had two slices of toast with peanut butter and a mug of ginseng tea. I would much preferred hash browns with a side of tofu scramble.

I make a big thing of steel cut oats on the weekend or a non-busy weekday night so that I have enough oats to last me three or four mornings. So in the morning, I scoop out however much oatmeal I want to eat, cover it with almond milk, mix in some raisins and sliced bananas, and nuke in the microwave for a minute or two. It makes having a healthy breakfast that much less of a hassle.

My breakfast today (at 1pm) was an awesome scrambled tofu in a burrito. However, I wished it could've had olives or black beans or avocado in/with it, and that I could've had toast instead of burrito. But I guess I can't really complain, eh?

For a while I would make a dozen or 2 dozen muffins and freeze them all, then take one out at night before I went to bed and put it by the coffee maker (also set up before I went to bed) so in the morning I would have fresh coffee and a muffin.

I had avocado on grain toast and I juiced some oranges and carrots together.

Hashbrowns are my desired breakfast...

it was :). the latte was just pumpkin pie spice + vanilla syrup. (I know you didn't ask, just thought I'd share)

I had no idea that so many people loved hashbrowns too, I thought it was another one of my weird food likes. question: does hashbrown refer to shredded potatoes only, or does it include diced potatoes? (I've always thought it was shredded, but since so many people like them I'm wondering if there are other forms of hashbrowns)

This week for breakfast I am having bananas cut in half and slathered with soy-nut butter. And tea, because I'm out of coffee.I'd rather have Chocolate Chip Pancakes with tofurky sausage and coffee. Mmmmmm....

I usually have oat bran or oatmeal with peanut butter, raisins, and a lot of cinnamon. Sometimes I add a banana or ground flax. I'm happy with oats, especially when the weather is cooler. In the summer I like dry cereal with soymilk or a smoothie.
